Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: IOhannes m zmlnig (zmoelnig) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: [print( message to [gemwin] may crash Initial Comment: sending a [print( message to [gemwin] will usually display a lot of information about the openGL system (like driver-version) however, if no openGL-context has been established yet (e.g. because no one [create(d a window yet), this might crash. the reason is that glGetString() crashes. the function pointer is NOT set to NULL. this happened with current svn on debian, while testing indirect rendering on my eee (using mesa on a i945GME) proposed fix: use a static variable that indicates whether the context has been initialized properly and don't call glGetString() unless this has happened... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=507079&aid=2842959&group_id=64325 _______________________________________________ GEM-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/gem-dev
